| Obverse description | The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield divided into three sections: the upper portion shows a rising sun between two headlands and the sea; the middle section bears a golden key symbolizing Cuba's position between the Americas; and the lower section displays a royal palm tree on a plain. The shield is surmounted by a Phrygian cap bearing a star, and is flanked by two oak branches on the left and two laurel branches on the right, tied at the base. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA arcs across the upper field, while the denomination 50 PESOS is inscribed along the lower border; the fineness designation 1/2 OZ and AU 0.999 appear in the left and right fields respectively. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a dynamic high-relief depiction of a male high jumper executing the Fosbury Flop technique, his arched body clearing the bar diagonally across the field with outstretched arms and elevated legs rendered in fine detail. The legend XI JUEGOS PANAMERICANOS curves along the upper periphery in bold incuse lettering. In the lower field, the inscription HABANA/91 is prominently displayed, flanked by the date 1990 above a small mint mark. A stylized infinity-loop emblem, representing the Pan American Games, appears centrally between the date and the city inscription. |
